Water Level High and rising got an inch plus today
I didn't get a hit at West Point, disappointing. I then went to Channel Inn Bay. Before I got to the first boat channel I had the pike not hook up on the full-size Shower Blows Knock Off. I got it a few casts later on the Jackhammer. I then had something hit the Ish's at the first boat channel but not get it. I cast in with the Craw Tube and the line broke on the hookset, 90% it was a pike. A fish then it something back in the formerly thick rice. I got the 16-incher in the same general area. I had another fish swirl on the frog. Wasn't able to get it with a follow-up. Inbetween boat lanes I had a bass give up its position nailing me just after the frog hit. For some reason tonight I altered the way I handled my end of cast with a frog to how I fish with a trebled topwater. Doing it that way leaves me susceptible to poor hooksets if a fish hits right after the lure lands. I need to break myself of this poor new habit I've developed. I did get the bass on the All-Terrain Grassmaster that Cyberfish left in the boat. I got one more 14-inch bass in the rice. At about 7:20 I headed for SPSI. Nothing there so went to SPBI. Got my last bass of the night there, a 13.75" on the Jackhammer. I ended on NPBI. It was really pleasant out and no skeeters to speak of. Tremendous lighting show to the East as I headed in.
4 Bass
1 Pike
